Sati chooses Yoh to become one of the Five Warriors, but first, she needs him to prove he''s got what it takes��in Hell itself! He''ll have to work his way back to the world of the living before he''s strong enough to command the Five High Spirits�地nd to do that, he''ll need to defeat the spirit of his ancestor, Yohken Asakura, who killed Hao 500 years ago. Meanwhile, Team Acala track down Ren, Joco, and Horohoro, intent on killing them before Yoh can make his return!

After a long, draining battle, Yoh has advanced past the Shaman Fight preliminaries...and he and his friends have a chance to kick back and take it easy before the tournament proper starts. But Yoh just can''t seem to catch a break as new challengers come out of the woodwork to defeat him before the tournament can even begin. Just who are these guys?! And who is Hao, the puppet master pulling their strings behind the scenes...?

The Iron Maiden Jeanne uses her mana to revive Yoh and his friends, but Hao has many allies among the Patch tribe�地nd they don''t intend to let anyone through. Hao, on the other hand, has made his way to the final Plant in the heart of the Lost Continent of Mu, and arrived at the Shrine of the King. Does Yoh''s company have any chance of stopping Hao without the Five Elemental Spirits at their command?!

The second round of the Shaman Fight is to be held on the Lost Continent of Mu! But Yoh and his friends aren''t the only ones headed for Mu�� Manta''s father, Mansumi Oyamada, is en route with a naval escort as well! The rules of the Shaman Fight strictly prohibit outside interference�存o Yoh and Hao do the unthinkable and team up to stop them!

After Hao is crowned the Shaman King, Yoh and his friends fight their way through the Plants of the Lost Continent of Mu, guarded by Hao''s allies among the Patch tribe, to defeat him. But, his mana spent after a flurry of harsh fights, Faust falls in battle. The Gandhara, on the other hand, have made their way to the heart of the Great Spirit, intent on entrusting Yoh and his friends with the Five Elemental Spirits.

Yoh advances to the second round of the Shaman Fight preliminaries, where he faces off against Faust VIII, a powerful necromancer. Faust''s cruel methods leave Yoh beside himself with anger...and it''s not long before he''s out of mana. But Yoh''s got one last trick up his sleeve...

Yoh leaves for Izumo to train his shamanic powers...and by the time he returns, he''s made a breakthrough. His Over Soul has grown stronger...and Amidamaru can even talk in Over Soul form now! But the third round of the Shaman Fight preliminaries awaits...as does his opponent, Ren, who commands a shining, golden Over Soul of his own. The day of their confrontation is finally at hand!

Sati Saigan, the leader of the Gandhara, has chosen Yoh and his friends to be the Five Warriors�地nd forced them to wander the depths of Hell for their training. But while they''re away, Hao attacks the Iron Maiden Jeanne and the others. Anna shows up to save the day�在ut something''s wrong with her. Can she hold out until Yoh makes it back?!

Yoh and his friends finally arrive at the Patch village...which they soon learn is the resting place of the Great Spirit, the strongest of all spirits on the planet. All the shamans in the village must form teams of three to prepare for the Shaman Fight...and if Yoh and his friends can''t find partners, they''ll be out of the running before the battle truly begins!

Yoh and his friends defeat the Ten Patch Officiants and catch up with Hao. But now that he''s been crowned the Shaman King, they''re no match for him, and he crushes them all in short order. The hopes, dreams and prayers of all the friends they met along the way resurrect the party one last time and they brace for the final showdown with Hao��

With Sati Saigan''s blessing, Yoh and his friends return from Hell. But the Oyamadas'' secretary, Midori Tamurazaki, has been working behind the scenes�地nd he succeeds in assassinating Hao''s followers. Now it''s finally time for Yoh''s team to take on Team Ren. It''s no-holds-barred. Who will emerge victorious?!

Shamans possess mysterious powers that allow them to commune with gods, spirits, and even the dead�地nd Manta Oyamada''s about to learn all about them, because his class just welcomed a new transfer student: Yoh Asakura, a boy from way off in Izumo�地nd a shaman in training!

With the Shaman Fight now underway, Yoh and his friends board a flight to America with the help of the Patch, the tribe of shamans who officiate the tournament. All entrants must report to the Patch village by the beginning of the Shaman Fight...but just moments before their expected arrival, the Patch make a shocking announcement: they''ll need to find the village on their own. That was bad enough...but their airplane disappears mid-flight, leaving them hurtling toward the ground!

Yoh pleads with the Iron Maiden Jeanne to allow him back into the tournament. Just then, Hao''s servant, Luchist, arrives, intent on removing Jeanne herself from the tournament�在y force. After Marco falls, it''s up to Yoh and Lyserg to fight off Luchist.

At last, the time has come for Team Funbari Onsen, consisting of Yoh, Ryu, and Faust VIII, to participate in the Shaman Fight. Their opponents are the Icemen, three proud European shamans with excellent teamwork. Manta''s shaking in his boots...but Team Funbari Onsen''s Over Souls have improved by leaps and bounds as a result of their harsh training, and they''re about to let the world know!

Yoh and his friends encounter Boris Tepes Dracula, a fearsome shaman from Transylvania...and Hao''s minion. He''s a fierce opponent, but Ryu manages to fight him off in an impressive showing of strength and cunning. It''s a fight that leaves the party shaken...but they barely have time to lick their wounds before a new shadowy organization makes an appearance: the X-Laws, who will stop at nothing to eradicate Hao...!

Yoh kicks off his tournament run by leading Team Funbari Onsen to a stunning victory�在ut there''s no time to relax, because it''s time for Hao''s tournament debut, too! His team is facing off against Team X-3, comprised of three of the X-LAWS'' most fearsome shamans�地nd he''s taking them on all by himself!

Yoh and his friends join forces with Lyserg, a dowser who''s sworn revenge on Hao, and set off in search of the Patch village. Meanwhile, back in Izumo, Yoh''s grandfather tells Anna who Hao really is. Just who is this shadowy young man who calls himself the Future King?

The first match of the Shaman Fight has been announced: it''s Joco, Horohoro, and Ren against three of Hao''s servants! Team Ren pulls through after an impressive showing from Joco...but before they''ve had a moment to rejoice, they finally track down Lyserg...clad in the uniform of the X-Laws!

With the raging golem calmed at last, Yoh and the others have a moment to breathe�在ut then Opacho, Hao''s faithful servant, appears, with a message from the man himself: Yoh needs to re-enter the Shaman Fight�她r else! Yoh doesn''t know what to do�守ntil Anna lights a fire under him.

Yoh makes a shocking confession, and now his friends wait with bated breath for nightfall, when he''s promised to tell them the whole story. Meanwhile, Yoh''s father, Mickey Asakura, approaches Ren and Horohoro. He knows Hao must be defeated at all costs�地nd he''s willing to pass on his own secret techniques to Yoh and his friends make it happen!

Yoh and his friends are nearly out of mana, so they spend a night at Calim''s old house on the Lost Continent of Mu in an effort to recuperate�地nd to approach their final confrontation with the Patch Officiants with renewed resolve.

The year is 1996, and Yoh Asakura, age ten, meets Anna Kyoyama for the first time. Anna has a gift: she can read others'' minds�安hether she wants to or not. And as she and Yoh make their first shrine visit of the new year, suddenly, her gift for reading minds unleashes a fierce oni from within her own heart. Yoh''s going to need Matamune''s help if he wants to save her�在ut it won''t be easy!

The Shaman Fight is finally underway, and Yoh''s first fight is against Horohoro, a snowboarding Ainu shaman whose spirit ally is the tiny nature sprite Kororo the koropokkur! And unlike Yoh, who''s strong but carefree, Horohoro''s not afraid to go all-out, even if it takes every last ounce of his mana. And at the end of a hard-fought battle, Horohoro summons an avalanche, burying Yoh alive!

Ren recovers from his wounds with the help of the Iron Maiden Jeanne, leader of the X-Laws�在ut Hao''s minions are closing in on the Icemen and Horohoro to steal their spirit companions. With his back against the wall, Horohoro remembers his father''s teachings and readies for a battle of wits against Brocken.

That night, a shooting star streaked across the sky, changing the world forever�圩or it marked the coming of the Shaman Fight, a tournament that occurs just once every 500 years. Whoever wins the Shaman Fight will be crowned king of all shamans. Still, Yoh seems as carefree as ever�守ntil he meets Silva of the Patch Tribe, an officiant of the Shaman Fight, who''s appeared to test Yoh''s mettle�宇he hard way!
